  1. I went for my first fill last week and the same thing happened to me; they could not find my port. They poked me with the needle for like 20 minutes. The pinch of the needle going in did not bother me, however a few seconds later I felt pressure and a burning sensation on my left side (near where the needle was). This happened repeatedly. They poked me in so many different spots and one of the Nurses made mention to the fact that she felt something further over where she initially stuck the needle. The other Nurse said that was probably tubing. I am very concerned that they may have jabbed the tubing. I go back for the Floro tomorrow but because of this experience I am also very nervous that it will burn again. I'm nervous that my port tilted or something...probably just being paranoid. My father and a friend of mine never had any problems with their fills and never had to go under Floro for them. Any ideas??
